I'll second Rodney. Cool. And add to that a very and a hugely.

[maisierita]

Thanks. Glad you enjoyed it!

This was really wicked. I loved the way you went from present time then cut to what happened and back again. Very vivid descriptions of the action and the emotions. Loved it.

[maisierita]

Cool. I wasn't sure that flashing back and forth was going to work for anyone but me ... :)

[sherrold]

well, I didn't get it until the very end. In fact, a second after the end, as I was thinking, "huh, cool. Now, wait a minute..."

Which, frankly, made it cooler.

[sarren]

Very cool. :)

[maisierita]

Thanks!

OMG just checked out your webpage and you wrote the Sweet Dreams series!!!!

*loves you*

I've still got that printed out somewhere. I made all my friends read it, back in the old C/P days.

Just read A Question of Perspective. Am sad now :( (but very good, esp Paris' pov)

::grinning::

Ah, Sweet Dreams. My very first slash ever. :)

Glad you liked AQOP, too. :) That was written as a break in the middle of a HUGE Paris-angst fic (which -- she says ashamedly -- got kind of pushed aside when I became obsessed with McShep).

ADORE your Abstain icon. Am giggling like crazy.

Oh well done! Original and well-constructed: this was really interesting and very appropriate to the challenge as well.

[maisierita]

Ooh! Original and well-constructed! Very happy, now. :)

Oh, that was *great*. And I figured it out, but pretty late.

I liked that a LOT.

[maisierita]

Okay, glad not everyone got it right away. :)
